Michael is my youngest son and the artwork is one of his pieces.


Poem Artwork

Michael and I are two peas in a pod.


Mother and son by the grace of God.


In both directions our love gently flows


like the sunshine and rain that forms rainbows.


We look a the world through one set of eyes


delighting in mountains and dark stary skies.


Joy we can find in the smallest of things


like butterfly's shispers and the song a robin sings.


Words are my forte, drawing his gift,


each of us using our talent to lift


the spirits of all those who we know


spreading beauty and cheer as we gently go


through this life day after day.


We do it because we know no other way


to be who we are, who we're meant to be,


and to show the world the beauty we see.

Yes, I do love it. I see that your MD has captured your heart as mine has. I just put up one for my daughter Summer. Both of the poems are 5 yrs old. BTW, your son does beautiful art work.

Your mother's love shines through in this poem, Bobbi. Tell Michael I think the graphic is great. It looks like the Lady's Slipper flower (but I am not expert). Love and peace to you both. Regis
